IMDB

The baron, a banker, has trouble with his secretaries. They are too attractive and distract him from his job. He fires his secretary so he can start dating her. To fill her position, he hires a poor young woman who sneaks into his office. She is the secretary he always wanted. Although she develops feelings for him rather quickly, and never passes on calls from women.
This is a solid and fast-moving light romantic comedy. This may be the movie with the most blatant and casual sexual harassment I've ever seen. Sexism aside, this movie is fun and worth a look.
No poster, so I found a picture of Marian Marsh.

7/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
